    Chicken Parmigiana Sandwich and pizza

    Delicious food, friendly prices, and warm service. Delicious food, friendly prices, and warm service

    Pizza is amazing! I get the Bianca and add artichokes and my dad got the margarita

    I love the pizza and wings at this place! The food is amazing and perfect for a weekend out. Service is always good also! The inside is small but I always sit outside at the bar or patio and they have heaters this winter!

    Small cheese pizza with garlic

    My go to for wood fire pizza! The wait staff for to go are always friendly and offer water while you wait. My second time ordering take out. I wanted to dig in so fast last time I forgot to take pictures. Today 7/19 I ordered the small cheese with garlic, the small supremo and mild buffalo wings with onions. Everything tasted great. Like I mentioned my go to. Gotta try it for yourself.

    Large Bianca with half black olives

    Excellent pizza! Service was great. We ordered a large Bianca with half sausage and black olives. Loved the dollops of ricotta throughout the pizza. Hot and fresh! Plenty of toppings.

    This is it. 1/8" thick.

    We had an event this afternoon and one of our friends brought a few pizzas from Fireside. I couldn't believe how poor they were. One had veggies, the other plain. Each were so thin, I could roll a cigarette with them. The toppings sucked, especially the green pepper. No flavor, the crust was bland and had no char on the bottom. It was a floppy mess. Not sure how this place gets such high praise, it's very average.

The new owners are clearly trying to please customers, and we appreciate their efforts. Service is still friendly, and the place feels welcoming. However, some changes are baffling. A successful restaurant succeeds for a reason. Why alter the winning formula. They removed pizza (a big favorite for many), kept similar-sounding dishes but without the same exceptional flavors, and it seems they didn't retain the longtime chef and staff that made it special. The result is good, but not the standout experience we loved. We're not here to criticize harshly. Running a restaurant is tough. But the old saying fits perfectly: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." We hope they'll bring back some signature elements. Until then, we'll be visiting less often. 3 out of 5 stars. Potential remains, but the magic has faded.

The prices are actually very reasonable, and I was even a little shocked at that. I ended up getting the seafood, over pasta for $23.99, which is muscles, shrimp, clams and calamari and I went with the white wine sauce. You could also get marinara or fra Diavolo sauce. It was fantastic. She ended up getting the veal Parmesan with angel hair and a side Caesar salad for $20.99 and that was fantastic as well. I think my only issue with my experience is we came in with about 45 minutes before they closed and the minute the restaurant closed. They immediately turned the lights on and started putting the chairs up. We were almost finished with dinner, but it just kind of felt very rushed in the end and I think it was they close at 8 PM. All in all very good experience, but just wish we had a little more time and I understand from working in the restaurant industry... You don't want to hang out all night and annoy the staff but turning the lights on immediately at close was kinda meh

    Very disappointed in the food, party of 8. The food quality really has gone downhill. The muscles…read morein red sauce were very fishy tasting, and the sauce had no flavor. The penne pasta was overdone. The clams in white sauce was very saucy and mushy spaghetti.. The chicken piccata just wasn't as tasty as normally and again the pasta was well overdone I had ordered the eggplant with Angel hair pasta al dente and my al dente was mushy also and I had ordered all my sauces on the side, thank God The sauce they used whether it was marinade or they're just pasta sauce was very bitter and had no taste. . The atmosphere was good very noisy cause it was full of people. We waited a long time there were eight of us and we were in there for over two hours. The service was good. Our server was just so accommodating about everything. The atmosphere was good very noisy cause it was busy not full. But we were in there over 2 hrs. So I also heard there were new owners??? The Italian wedding soup was excellent in flavor.

    ***GLUTEN FREE REVIEW*** On my Gluten Free journey to find…read morenew places to enjoy, I came across suggestions for Casa Cosenza. I read that the Chef is the wife/owner and the husband/owner runs front of house. I read they offered GF bread, pasta and other options. We went in right after they opened for the evening at 5:30pm. There was a couple at the bar and 5 gentlemen at a table. The ambiance and decor is nice and comfortable. There's a full bar. As we sat a young man brought water and menus right away, then brought a bread plate. I asked if he could bring GF bread. He returned and let me know there was none available. Not a big deal. The owner greeted us and I asked about the menu. On Yelp a menu shows clearly marked GF options, but none were on this revised menu. It did have a notation that GF options were available upon request. He said to just pick what I like and he'll see if it can be GF. I'll be honest, I "think" the server(s) must have called in sick because it was just the owner and the young kid, and the owner seemed very disorganized about serving and it wasnt even busy yet. It took a good 10-15 minutes until he was able to make his way back to us to order wine and a cocktail. His response to hubby's cocktail was that he's not a bartender and cant make a Moscow Mule. I asked if he had GingerBeer (I would walk him through it) but he said no. Hubby drank water, I had a glass of Pinot Noir. I knew things like Lasagne, Ravioli, etc could not be made GF, but the 3 plain pasta options weren't appealing to me. So I asked about the Eggplant appetizer and could it be made a dinner. He said he could make it dinner sized. Sounds good! Hubby got the Veal Scallopini Marsala. It does take awhile to get the food but you are forewarned that everything is fresh and made to order, so we were ok with the wait. My eggplant and sauce had a delicious flavor! However, the portion was small...either they forgot to make it larger (but charged me for it) or it just wasnt sufficient. Sadly, I left hungry. Worse, it was also COLD. I was so surprised! It was so cold that the Mozzarella Cheese was hardened on the inside. And speaking of hard....both hubby and my potatoes were hard and undercooked so we couldnt eat them. The veggies were good, but I also couldnt eat the chewy round parmesan crisps. Husband's Meal was decent, he said the sauce was delicious, but the veal was a bit tough, and again, his potatoes were undercooked and couldnt eat them. So to sum up, service was a bit disorganized and a tad slow (but I really do think someone called in as there was no server or bartender), the food was cold and small portions, BUT.....the flavor was really good! It is a bit of a disappointment to leave a restaurant hungry and paying $80 for a meal. Reading all the excellent reviews I think we just caught them on an off night. My suggestion, take your chances, it is a charming restaurant and the flavor of the food is really good--just try to catch them on a good night!

I didn't try the mozzarella triangles myself, but others at our table said they were delicious. For mains, we ordered the "Combination for Two," lasagna, and the special of the day, a parmesan-crusted salmon. The salmon was outstanding and cooked to perfection. The combination platter itself was very generous--easily enough for three people depending on your appetite. It came loaded with fried eggplant, two sausages, spaghetti, cheese ravioli, plus a basket of garlic bread. The bread was excellent, especially with the flavorful garlic butter seasoning. For dessert, we split the lemon cake with raspberry drizzle, which was light, refreshing, and a perfect ending to the meal. If I had one critique, it's that the red sauces across different dishes tasted very similar, which made it feel a little repetitive. That said, I definitely plan to return and try more dishes to explore the variety of flavors they have to offer.
